for the past 14 years, Russian hockey player Evgeni Malkin plays in the NHL and plays for the team “Pittsburgh penguins”. A few years ago moved to the United States and his wife Anna Masterova, with which hockey player brings a four-year son Nikita.

However, as recognized Kosterova with Malkin, they will not mind if their son will choose a different from his father’s profession and become a hockey player:
We in any case will not push. How did he decide, so be it. I have very big ambitions about his education. Wish he not only spoke English and Russian, but also knew perfectly the grammar.
In her opinion, it is possible that he will not be able to achieve the same great success in hockey, like his dad.
If we talk about dynasty, I don’t remember the son once surpassed his famous father, she said.
However, Nikita has another hobby where he can try his hand in the future: the son of the couple loves basketball and dreams of playing as the legendary Michael Jordan.
